99.9% of scientists agree: the world is warming due to greenhouse gas emissions from human causes. These gas emissions trap heat in the atmosphere, causing the polar ice caps to melt and global average temperatures to increase. In 2015, government leaders from around the world made a pact to limit global average temperature rise to a point that would allow a familiar standard of living -- 2 degrees Celsius (2°C). This pact is called the Paris Climate Accord.

We have already seen global average temperatures rise by 0.8°C due to human causes, resulting in devastating effects like drought, extreme weather, flooding, and heat waves. At Ice911, we understand that every degree matters, and know we need to act now to keep the world under 2°C.
